Aw man It's so good to be back blogging again!!!!! It was June 2014 since my last post which is just crazy right?! I think I mainly lost interest due to lack of time, I always saw my channel and my blog as two separate things rather than just treating it as one and felt I was stuck for time trying to get both done, So one of my new years resolutions was to give my blog a little makeover and get back into blogging regularly. I don't do many reviews on my channel so It might be a good idea to start doing my reviews here and also my old school outfit of the day posts....Gosh I missed those days. It may take me a while to get back into a regular blogging schedule but I'm feeling very positive about everything.

So First things first, A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to receive a few products to try out from Rodial Cosmetics. I never heard of the brand before so I was a little skeptical but as soon as I checked out the website and online reviews, I was very eager to receive my package.

I got the Glamolash XXL mascara which I must say is so amazing for thickness,

the only thing I didn't like about the mascara was the size of the brush, If you have small eyes you might want to choose one of their other mascara's as the brush is quite wide so It can be tricky to get right into the root of the lash without poking yourself in the eye ha! But otherwise I really liked the packaging, the texture is really lightweight and the formula doesn't clump the lashes. My lashes looked so dark and thick compared to other mascaras.

I was most excited to try this Glamstick called Revenage. I choose the colour myself as I'm a big lover of pinks and peachy shades. The formula is buttery but lightweight, leaves your lips feeling nourished and doesn't dry up as it's enriched in vitamin E and cocoa butter.
The colour pay off was good, a little translucent as it's a balm but quite long lasting. I totally fell in LOVE with the packaging like WOW!!!! I think it's by far my favourite brand packaging yet.Click me for direct link

OH MAMA!!!!! This was by far my favourite product of the bunch. It's the Eye sculpt cream shadow in Brown and it's the most perfect cream shadow Ive ever tried. It's extremely lightweight feels like a moose, It gives AMAZING colour pay off so a little goes a long way. It said on the website it doesn't move once its on the skin and boy they weren't lying. The smokey eye pencil I received aswell (here) was so creamy and melted beautifully, so both combined create the perfect smokey eye and I'll leave the link to my Smokey eye Tutorial below.

And lastly and unfortunately my least favourite was the Stemcell Super-food day cream.
I really liked the lightweight texture of this moisturiser and it gives the skin a nice radiant glow, however I didn't feel it left my skin nourished, My skin felt quite tight after it and that may be because I don't have the full stemcell range.

The moisturiser wasn't in anyway bad however for the price, the ingredients weren't the best I've seen so I wouldn't be rushing out to buy another. But that's not to say that this product isn't good, I just felt It didn't work on my skin, Skincare is always tough to review because what works for me may not work for you and likewise.Click me for direct link

And that about wraps up this blog post. I really hope you enjoy this review. Even tho these products were sent to me, all opinions are 100% my own. Be sure to check out Rodial's Social Pages
